Earl Grey MarTEAni cocktail recipe (by Audrey Saunders)

The Earl Grey MarTEAni is a simple and unique variation on a classic gin sour. Originally created in the early 2000s by Audrey Saunders of New York's well respected Pegu Club. The Earl Grey tea adds notes of bergamot and soft tannins that compliment the dry gin's botanicals. Audrey prefers to use Tanqueray.

one of the first cocktails I ever made, after I saw it on how to drink. one of my mum's favourites!

[CoachVinoLLC]

Nothing like a little wordplay to make a cocktail that much more fun to drink! Nice to see you behind the stick again. Cheers Steve! 🥃

[Benharry]

Been making this one for the last couple of months and people can’t get enough of it!

I love earl grey tea! This definitely sounds like a drink for me

[brytefyre]

I just tried this with the 2 oz of gin, and it was awesome. Then I took it a step further and used some orange simple syrup (I made candied oranges last week) and holy mackerel, it was AMAZING! Thank you!

Another point about the straining, if there are particles such as tea suspended in the group it's going to create nucleation points and cause your foam to not last as long/be as thick

[rosemaryskeen]

Thanks for sharing! I used 2oz of infused gin instead. It turned out great, definitely a keeper!

[bethanijade]

my favourite bar used to make these, but they closed during the pandemic. I'm excited to try this out at home see if it compares to the Hollows!

Made this for guests tonight. Strong tea flavor and a big hit with all.

[GreenWitch]

I watch for the shaker smile 😃 I only drink salty dogs & margaritas, but I’d like to try some new cocktails. 🥂

I love this drink. After seeing it on a couple other channels, I decided to try it. I initially only infused 6 oz because I didn't know whether I'd like it, but this is one tasty cocktail! So glad you made it! (That way I can use your app for the recipe instead of just a note on my phone. 😁)

[stephane.foisy.]

Hmm sounds interesting and will give it a go as we enjoy earl grey tea.

[boozeontherocks]

I should definitely make one of these.,

[toubs]

Favourite of mine since seeing it on Greg's channel a few months back. So glad that you've finally made it and enjoy it :)

[SanTM]

Great looking drink, bet it tastes as great too

[JMoore-zmof]

I liked this one. I also had some Beefeater laying around. It really seems to hit the bergamot up front & then sort of finishes drier & more tannic. Given the lemon in the drink, I wondered if the bergamot would come through, I think it did. Makes me want to try Lapsang or Oolong in cocktails

Hi Steve, looks good and recipe now in notebook2. However, I will make this over the weekend slightly differently. 40ml gin 5ml Italicus. Only thing missing will be tea tannins. Nick from York

[Yousei]

I just ordered, like two or three days ago, a bottle of Italicus Rosolio Di Bergamotto liqueur. Hoping to create something similar with it

[intimeontime]

Any reason you wouldn't infuse with a tea bag, for smaller batched anyway? Thoroughly enjoyed this, and will make larger earl grey gin batches in the future!

I was, lazily, throwing gin into my iced teas all summer. I wish I'd thought of this then.
